National City Business Outreach: South County EDC in partnership with the City of National City conducted the business outreach efforts in the month of March on the business corridor of East Plaza Blvd. The intent of our business outreach program is to provide business assistance, assist the south county cities with canvassing specific areas, and to capture data that would help us learn more about the economic environment in the targeted areas. The business outreach in National City will conclude by the end of this fiscal year, in the month of June 2023. We would like to thank all volunteers that joined us in the month of March: Tanya Castaneda from PRM Consulting Inc, Willie Armas from SCEDC Board and U.S. Bank, Mario Espinosa from U.S. Bank, Vic Bianes from SCEDC Board and Golden Realty Group, and SCEDC staff.

The District awards the title “Best in District” and a nursery gift card, among other prizes, to one resident for their attractive, drought-tolerant garden.
